I was on the side of a woman who was just assaulted by her partner. Immediately I was pissed at her again when Tony had to come over & fix everything for her while she did nothing but act like a broken victim, then run away. If you shoot a guy, you better be prepared to clean up after yourself, or you only have yourself to blame. I don’t mind Tony’s help…I mind that she left the responsibility on him, exclusively. Although one of my favorite all time Sopranos moments was when she was getting on the bus & she asked Tony what he did with Richie’s body.
      She annoyed me even more when she was with Bobby. She’s just always doing manipulative shit…..but even when it works the way she wanted it to, there’s just no reason for any of it.

      I have 3 friends who are huge fans of the sopranos. These are dudes who work in construction, in law enforcement, and a barber, Yknow every day normal dudes.
      They spent so many years quoting the show, cracking jokes from the show, and making references that I figured they were super fans.
      During the pandemic I decide to actually watch the show for the first time and was blew away how amazing it was, and I ran to them to talk about the show.
      I then learned they didn’t even understand most of what was going on in the story, especially the last season.
      I’m of the belief that A LOT of sopranos fans don’t understand the greater story as a whole and just love the jokes and the dark comedy among the colorful characters.

Johnny Depp ). All I know is that he worked like a mf, every episode..he'd work for like 20hrs, taking power naps in between or staying awake to look like he just woke up. It also explains his very nasal sounding voice, even though NY/NJ accents often ARE nasal. I guess I'm curious to know your source.. care to share?

      Tony gave Ralph the go ahead without explicitly doing so. He knows Jackie's actions are because of Ralph's guidance as a father figure in some way and wants him to suffer. Saying "The guys will understand." is his way of saying "Good luck getting the guys to understand".

    Anyone else notice how Eugene Pontacorvo wasn't mentioned, yet had quite a role to play. Considering the Members Only jacket playing a pivotal role after trying to pay his way out of the family before feeling compelled 2 kill himself when denied. After his wife's remarks about Tony, its obvious ( to me) that It was Gene who had Tony killed an eye for an eye.

    Tony was definitely wacked in that diner at the very end, just in time for Meadow to witness it. Tragic, but you’d expect nothing less than that. There are a few reasons that’s the case but chief among them is that at the beginning of the final season Tony discussed the fact that being assassinated would be quick and just cutting to darkness

      one thing that bugged me was that both Carmela and A.J. looked nervous and kinda sus when they entered the diner, and this could have been a coincidence but neither of them sat at the right of Tony, leaving an empty seat for Meadow that was conveniently late, so the hitman could had a clear shot once he exited the restroom.
      For years this made me think that they set him up.
      Anyway, the writer explained many times that anyone can picture what he wants to (it's a beautiful finale indeed, but clearly anyone that closes his series with a cut to black and say "now finish it how you want" took the easy path)

    • @MJ-we9vu

      The reason the series ended like it did was because Chase, the actors and the studio were in discussions for a possible Sopranos feature film. If the check was big enough and Gandolfini had lived Tony would have been fine in that diner.

      Because it didn't happen on screen...and there was no mention of it on screen. So it's just fan fiction. You could say ANYTHING and assume that's exactly what happened but it doesn't matter. If it doesn't happen on screen or isn't mentioned on screen, it isn't canon . David Chase said numerous times how he intended to have him die, but ultimately left it up to the audience to decide. Which is nothing but fan fiction. Maybe junior got his memory back and became boss again. Not likely, but it doesn't matter...didn't happen on screen. As far as we know , tony is alive, and probably in jail......but we don't know because we didn't see it.

    I didn't have cable, so never watched The Sopranos when on HBO.
    HOWEVER, when A&E picked it up, their promotion was insane.
    They had, pre-airing, a game where you could get points for predicting how many times Carmela, Tony, etc.would wear gold jewelry, or Tony would smoke a cigar, or someone would drink booze, and the like. Of course, ppl who had seen it before would win easily, but I found it fun to play.
    That promo really hooked me - even though The Sopranos had come and gone as a cultural phenomenon.
    I love the series and have watched it many, many times! Use quotes from it ...a lot.
